"I Have to Go Home Now" presents an empirical account of cross-cultural social work with First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples in Quebec, Canada. Ms. Garwood narrates a personal journey that casts light on the conflictual nature of intervention by non-Native systems in the lives of Aboriginal peoples. The material describes the clinical realities of Aboriginal experience, promoting understanding of Aboriginal issues and supporting important discussions on treatment and policy-making. A therapeutic healing bush-camp for male Aboriginal ex-offenders serves as the background to the discussions that emerge from the text.

After training at the McGill Forensic Psychiatric Clinic, Ms. Garwood worked as a psychotherapist at CRC Waseskun House, a residential centre for First Nations, Inuit and Metis men emerging from provincial and federal correctional institutions. After moving to private practice, she continues to deliver therapeutic services to individuals, couples and families to the eleven Aboriginal communities across Quebec. Her career working alongside Aboriginal peoples spans twenty-five years. Her primary focus is to encourage Aboriginal self-governance in areas of health and social services, and to encourage the development of culturally-appropriate healing practices.
